Centurio Seals

Centurio seals are the rewards from hunts and they can be used to upgrade your tomestomes

You probably won’t get full participation unless you’re in a party of 8. When you enter a hunt zone, either look for a group in the Party Finder or spam “invite” in /shout until you get a group invite (this really depends on the server – I rarely see PF groups on Bryn).
Hunting Linkshells (note: these are only for Brynhildr)

If you join one of these Linkshells, don’t be the person to pull the hunt mob otherwise there’s a decent chance they will kick you.

Marks will be called out in the linkshell, click the location, TP there and fly toward the hunt location (it’ll be marked on your map if you click it from chat) while trying to get into a
Clan Hunts

If you did not unlock Hunts during ARR, you’ll need to go back and do that. It requires that you achieve Second Lieutenant with your GC in addition to completing one of the quests here: http://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/The_Hunt

You can access the following recurring Clan Mark Bills in Foundation near Cloud Nine:

3 centurio/mark (5 marks, 15 daily) - One-star Clan Mark Bills (daily)
4 centurio/mark (5 marks, 20 daily) - Two-star Clan Mark Bills (daily)
15 centurio/mark (5 marks, 75 daily) - Three-star Clan Mark Bills (daily)
100 centurio (1 mark, 100 weekly) - Elite Clan Mark Bill (weekly)

If you complete all of your marks, it ends up totalling 870 seals/week.

http://ffxivhuntmarks.jinivus.com/ is a great resource for all the daily hunt locations. The weekly ones you kinda just have to wait in the zone and hope someone calls it out on shout.
